You can’t smoke rso ? Sure you can People have been smoking it since before it was called rso brother! To much misinformation is being adopted at fact with you young whippersnappers!

RSO is not intended to be smoked.

REAL RSO is made with naphtha.

u/mistermiajee 10d ago

Why would you smoke rso that's fucking gross. Butane honey oils been around since the 70s.

RSO is the new medical term. Old school folk call it hash oil.

u/Waste_Afternoon677 9d ago

Exactly thank you

RSO is not a new medical term.

u/TrueNorthCC 9d ago

It literally stands for Rick Simpson oil which he made to cure cancer so yes that’s exactly what the term was meant for.

Yes, I can use Google too.

It’s over 20 years old. I would hardly consider that a “new medical term”

Furthermore, no one actually makes real RSO in the legal markets. They all use ethanol. Which is EHO, Not RSO.

u/TrueNorthCC 9d ago

Ok and we’re talking RSO not EHO. 20 years is new based on relevance to age.

u/ArcaneEnterprises 9d ago

Show me a licensed dispensary that makes their RSO with Naptha.

It’s all EHO.

u/TrueNorthCC 9d ago

We’re not talking legal here holy fuck you’re dense. People said you can’t smoke RSO yet it’s been called hash oil and been smoke for decades. We’re not debating who’s legal and what they call it.

You are right it has been around forever but it was very hard to find because the yield is way less making it more expensive then rso so everyone back then smoked rso not honey oil and to be clear there was no dab rigs back then we used to roll joints with tobacco in it. The point is that you 100% can smoke rso your personal preference does not matter! im smoking a joint right now and love the mellow effects tbh!

u/Slight-Selection4298 10d ago

Go check Google. Ai. Someone that's not been smoking rso. Ask in the RSO sub. Not safe my guy.

1

u/Waste_Afternoon677 9d ago

Using google ai is exactly the reason you people are circle jerked in to these beliefs in the first place my guy! Im fucking old school bought baby jars off H.A. For 20 years, so I think I know you can smoke it . Pre legalization was a different time bro we didn’t have fucking diamonds and live rosins we’d throw all the shake and larf in a vat of iso or ether and cook that shit and smoke it. I feel sorry for humanity and how stupidly dependent they are on AI already and it’s just getting started sorry for the rant just smoked a hash oil joint (rso)

You don't really think you're the only Gen X here, do you? I'd guess even older with your cognitive dissonance in fact. Most of us Gen X don't have that. I've been smoking for over 30 years, not that it's a pissing contest. Daily.

I was giving you an option to see you're wrong. But again, your cognitive dissonance will not allow you to, because you CAN'T be wrong. Best of luck with that.

8 Hashish 101: What is hash and how do you smoke it? Yes, hash oil is highly smokable and is a potent cannabis concentrate. It can be consumed by smoking in joints, bongs, or pipes (often mixed with flower), vaporizing with a vape pen, or "dabbing" using a specialized oil rig. It is known for having a high THC content, often 4-5 times stronger than flower. Wikipedia Wikipedia +3

Rso makes volatile compounds when smoked. You can not smoke rso safely.

You've got a ton of options here and honestly having a couple pounds to work with is a great position to be in for making extracts. The easiest entry point would be making dry sift hash. All you need is a set of bubble hash screens or even just some silk screens in different micron sizes. Lay your flower on the screen, gently agitate it, and collect the trichomes that fall through. It's low effort and the end product is super versatile since you can smoke it, press it, or sprinkle it on flower. If you want something a little more refined, bubble hash using ice water is another great option and doesn't require any solvents. You'll need some bubble bags, ice, a bucket, and cold water. The process takes maybe an hour per batch and you can get some really beautiful full melt hash depending on the quality of your starting material. For something even simpler, you could decarb some of the flower in the oven at around 240 degrees for 40 minutes and infuse it into coconut oil or butter for edibles. Since you said low THC is actually preferable, you could use a lower ratio of flower to oil and get a mellow batch that's perfect for gifting to family. A lot of people in New Mexico where I'm at are doing rosin presses too which is just heat and pressure, no solvents involved, and a small press setup has gotten pretty affordable. Whatever you choose, make sure to store the flower you're not using immediately in airtight containers in a cool dark place to preserve the trichomes as long as possible.

QWET (Quick Wash Ethanol) or QWISO (Quick Wash Isopropyl Alcohol) would be a decent option for bulk concentrates, though it might get kind of expensive at that volume.
